Mrs. Jones Brings
WSCS Devotion
Mrs. A. V. Jones gave an in-
spiring devotional on Patience at
a meeting of the Woman's So-
ciety of Christian Service Tues-
day at the United Methodist
Church.
Reading from Revelation,
Thessalonians and James sihe
illustrated her talk with a draw-
ing of three trees. The trees
eventually became a cradle for
Jesus, a fisherman's boat for use
of Jesus and the disciples, and a
cross on which Jesus was cruci-
fied.
Mrs T. M. Howie discussed
chapter five, "A Cry in the
Night," from the book on Mat-
thew, "The Visitation" by Rudi
Weber. "Even Jesus did not
want to go to the cross, ' she
quoted," but eventually he was
able to say "Thy will be done."
Betrayals, arrest, trial and exe-
cution followed On the cross, a
cry in the night was His cry of
confidence and triumph in his
last words."
In charge of the meeting was
Mrs. Jack Moore president, who
gave the closing prayer.
Those present were Mmes
Marvin Pettit, K L. Fenner, J.
D. Arther, J. B Lipscomb, John
Grothe, J. L: Douglas, Minnie
Giles, C. L. Gladden, Bland Tur-
ner, Jones, Howie and Moore.

Four-H projects have much to
offer youth, especially those in-
volving animals. Perhaps one
of the foremost advantages of
an animal project is the contri-
bution that it makes to a young-
ster's development into adult-
hood.
The values of a youth's asso-
ciation with* an animal were"
voiced recently by Dr. J. T. Hol-
brcok, clinical director of the
Brazos Valley Mental Health
in Bryan.
"Youngsters can transfer feel-
ings of ne«d and love from ani-
mals to humans," said Holbrook. t
"Experiences with animals help
mold the individual's personali-
ty and attitudes."
In today's mechanized urban
society, many youngsters have
largely been removed from real-
ity as far as nature and the life
processes are conceinad, noted
the psychiatrist. Thus, they
must rely on other opportunities,
and 4 H project work provides
such an opportunity, he added.
Nearly every child who has
cared for an animal has exper-
ienced some common crisis —
daily feeding of a pet, occasion-
al sickness and even death of an
animal, or parting witty a prize
steer on sale day after months
of careful attention and handl-'
ing. "Support from parents and
leaders can help youth cope with
such stress and thereby enable
tliern to tolerate more difficult
fu! ure crises," Holbrook pointed
out.
The clinical director noted
that closely related to the de»
veiopment of youth into adult-
hood is the idea of becoming ac-
customed to the normal stress of
everyday living. "Exhibiting an
animal, for instance, puts a 4-
11 'er under pressure; he learns
to cope -with the situation by ac-
cepting it and meeting the chal-
lenge."
Caring for an animal, also al-
lows a youngster to become
•'goal oriented," emphasizes
Holbrook. In feeding, caring for
and showing animals, the 4-H'er
feels his worth because he haa
some goals He receives a

chance for self motivation in
the fulfillment of his goals with
the animal.
"People who can't relate to
past experiencee or goals tend
to have problems in adapting to
changes in life," the psychiat-
rist pointed out. "Consequently,
they seldom make useful contri-
butions to society ."
Another advantage of workirtg
with and caring for animals is
that youngsters learn patience,
or the ideas of delayed gratifi-
cation, Holbrook added.
"Once a youngster is commit-
ted to a particular activity or
project, he can work with it and,
at the same time, grow and de-
velop himself. An animal proj-
ect, whether it be a steer, horse,
dog or rabbit, can be the begin-
ning of 'real life' experiences for
many a youth," noted Holbrook.

MORE INVESTMENT CREDIT
The restoration of investment
"credit continues to cause prob-
lems to tax payers and tax prac-
titioners- preparing 1971 income

in which investment credit pro-

points of confusion, notes Dr.
Jim Mallett, Extension econo-

15. Property ordered prior to
April 1 and received after Aug.

Q. Are tax rates any lower
for single people this year?
A. Yes. The lower tax rates
for single persons are reflected
in the tax tables and tax rate
schedules in the instructions for
your 1971 Federal income tax
reurn.
Q, I hear VA pensioners over
72 years of age don't have to file
annual income questionnaires
anymore. Is that true?
A. Yes. A recent law ex-
cludes persons 72 years old and
older who draw pensions for
rvonservice connected disabilities
ami parents receiving indemnity
compensation during two conse-
cutive years from filing annual
income questionnaires. How-
ever, they still must report
changes in income.
Q. How can I get my claim for
a pension considered since I
have no doctor and can't alford
the cost of an examination re-
quired by VA?
A. Suggest you notify the VA
office handling your claim what
you disabilities are, describing
them as best you can. Be sure
to make clear you don't have
money to pay for the examina-
tion, and perhaps arrangements
can be made for a VA clinic to
examine you.
